I mean the show is about Sam deciding if he wants to be cap or not

Yeah but it's demonstrating pretty handily that demanding your audience watch a streaming series to follow your movie beats is a bad idea.

Especially such a mediocre one

This is satire, this is the same kind of nonsense people said about his games.

This is a tongue in cheek statement by Kojima.

Sure, but he's making fun of the Marvel audience for the same flaw held by gamers:

They're kind of dumb, on the whole. Partly because a lot of them are children who may not necessarily follow the commentary.

Except that isn't what happened.

If you don't watch Falcon & The Winter Soldier then Sam goes from accepting the role of Captain America in Endgame from Steve, to being Captain America in Brave New World. There is a moment in Endgame where Sam isn't sure he's earned it, but that's part of the conversation with Steve.

If however you do watch Falcon & The Winter Soldier you discover that Sam did wrestle with the idea of being Captain America for more than just a moment. During the series Sam grows as a character and ultimately does accept the role of Captain America.

For the purposes of the Captain America character The Falcon & The Winter Soldier is not required. It's a nice bonus to his character and I would recommend it. It's like watching The Avengers having not seen Captain America 1. You can enjoy the Captain America character without having seen his origin story.
